54 years have passed since the Last Commute — the collapse of time travel. You were born in the Cretaceous, beneath cybernetic skies and among apex predators.  The past is your home now. But the future may not be lost.
Welcome to the campaign wiki hub for '''Predation: Bring Home The Beacon'''. This serves as a central index for all sessions, characters, technology, and lore.


== Starting Location ==
== Current Waypoint Actions Menu ==
'''Heartsong Refuge''' is a sanctuary where dinosaurs are healed, modified, and studied.  Dr. '''Jurita Abrashi''' arrives with a mission: find '''DISCO''' — a sapient, time-traveling drone lost decades ago.


== The Hook ==
# Search area to learn about flora and fauna,
DISCO may hold the key to restoring time travel — or rewriting evolution itself.  Dr. Abrashi is assembling a team to locate it. Strangely, the team includes a negotiator.  What secrets lie in DISCO’s code — and who else is looking for it?
# Hunt,

Dr. '''Jurita Abrashi''', a former time-theory expert, is recruiting a team to investigate the signal, locate DISCO, and understand how it is still functioning—possibly without reliance on the lost data stream from the Last Commute.
